Hi, Shes still a tad huffy, I watched her for a bit last night (well this morning) and if i make a sudden move (moved my hair) she went in the corner in a ball, so i just strocked her till she came out, she is very friendly, and came out after 5mins. shel take food from my hand lovely, but i still need to stop being a shit bag and pick her up...
Shes in my living room, were the noise is.

ok the best thing to do is what i do as polly acts like a conker the minute i go to get her out, I got a cheap fleace blancket cut it up, and what i do is fold it up thick enough so the prickle dont get me, then i scoop her up in it, i guess she feels relaxed and then un balls within seconds and happily walks onto my hands,

Mine still wakes up in a right mood and is awkward to pick up - as soon as he gets on our bed though he is great - he loves snuggling ontop of the quilt.

Glad you have finally got her - they do take a while to get to know you.

roll on wednesday i get my boy albino!! King Thistle!!! Daughters idea!! ah!! also with Polly she is the moody one, she calms right down when she has a bath, its a good way of getting confident on handling them as if they ball in water they get there face wet, which they hate, so they dont and its alot easier to learn how to pick them up. takes a while but you will get there, just be confident x
